rough idle and loss of power

I have a 1995 C280 that has developed a rough idle and sluggish takeoff. I does not misfire and has not given me an error code. Any ideas where to head??

Depending upon the age of--- I would start with new wires and plugs and start testing the fuel injectors!!

The spark plugs and wires were replaced 25,000 miles ago, but the injectors have never been service as far as I know. Thats where I will head next. Thanks for the reply..

Did a diagnostic check, turns it had a bad #2 coil. Unfortunately it never gave an error code.. So I couldn't tell what was wrong.. Car is running fine now... Thanks
